For more than fifteen years I’ve conceived and written catalogs, web sites,
brochures, and other marketing materials for clients large and small. I’ve
also directed the copy departments at Smith & Hawken, J. Crew, and Haggin Marketing. My method: Nouns and verbs. My motto: Levity, brevity, sympathy, action. My mission: Turn readers into customers.
